YouTubers, Rescue The Princess, have been at it again this time presenting an amazing cosplay show case from the recent Summer Comiket. This Comiket was the 92nd one and saw a massive crowd turn out at Tokyo Big Sight to check out the new manga from their favourite mangaka but also to admire the absolutely stellar cosplay that was on display. Don’t believe me? Check out the video below!

I thought I’d do something new for Friday so I’m starting Flashback Fridays!! Here’s a look at a clip from our last Japan trip when we visited Winter Comiket which is a massive attraction for cosplayers along with people selling their original manga at Tokyo Big Sight. Enjoy!

Despite the freezing weather today, we headed out to Comiket, eager to check out another con in Japan which didn’t fail to disappoint with the high level of cosplay that was on display. Such cosplay! We had a quick look inside the actual venue which was very interesting but we weren’t able to grab any footage 🙁 Gomensai 🙁 We then caught the train to nearby Diver City to grab a bite and to see the amazing Gundam statue before he gets disassembled in March 2017 🙁

The Summer Comic Market (Comiket 84) held in Japan has wrapped up for this year. Comiket is known as the world’s largest dojinshi fair which occurs twice annually and is a great opportunity for the public to showcase their self published works. As with expos and cons of this nature, it attracts cosplayers of all sorts in all various costumes and outfits. The venue it takes place at is the Tokyo Big Sight, a venue used in Japan for many events of this nature.

I’m a bit behind the ball on this one but better late than never 🙂 Comiket is an event held in Japan which is the largest doujinshi or self published comic book event anywhere in the world. This year it was held on August 12, 12 and 14th and by all accounts, it was a great success with loads of work being showcased. Below I’ve included a gallery of pics from the first day, further galleries from the other days will be up later this week.
